I stopped programming in Access about 12 years ago. Now I'm retired, working on a genealogy project, and had the idea of combining my DNA matches from several different labs into a database, where I narrow down particular matches based on a chromosome. So I've got the workbook with 22 sheets in...

A very long time ago, I was a contributor on this site. I see some names I recognize, The Doc Man, Vassago, Brian Warnock, Uncle Gizmo. I don't see Rich. Anyway, just a shout out to anyone who remembers me. I'm retired now. Hope all my old friends are fine.

To those of you who remember me/know me, I have news. Today I had my results from my chemotherapy of the past 6 months. No trace of leukemia could be found in my bone marrow. I am cancer FREE as of right now. How long will it last, who knows? My platelet count is extremely low due to the chemo...

Damn, Billy Mays died. That's much worse than Michael Jackson. The best junk pitchman ever.

Hey all, don't get on here much anymore, working in asp.net now and rarely need Access help anymore. I still peruse the Watercooler when I can and try to stay up on the latest news and such. (Col, your Xmas post in the Politics and Events area was hilarious) Anyway, I ran across an article on...

Helping another developer with this and I don't have time. Form/subform setup. Subform has a combo box that populates values for three fields in the subform. Problem is when the user selects a value in the combo, it populates the values for those three fields on all the records showing in the...

This post will only appeal to folks in the US, I'm afraid, so forgive me all you folks outside the states. Two weeks ago I realized the dream of a lifetime when I traveled with my oldest daughter to Green Bay, WI and attended a Green Bay Packer home game at Lambeau Field. I've been a fan since...

Do mods have the authority to make changes in a user's profile?

I have a form - frmBridge1. It has a subform sqlBridge1_subform. In the first field on the subform, I am using the gotfocus event to do some things. I want to use 4 different subforms on this main form, but the function I originally built was for a single subform. I want to reference the subform...

I have an Access database that will used to collect data on numerous types of physical assets. Basically it's an audit. The questions posed during this audit are lengthy. So I put the question in the field description. Now I want to display this value in a text box when the user tabs into the...

I know this has been visited many times on this forum, but I cannot find by searching anything that addresses a particular need: a browse folder listbox that will show the file name and the file date, sorted by file date. Anyone out there done this?

Went to my oncologist Wednesday for 4-month testing. My lymphocyte count actually dropped 3 points!!! I have been sitting on pins and needles since May when my count jumped 30 points. We were all sure I would be starting chemotherapy this fall. My oncologist almost danced a jig in the exam room...

I was reading the thread "I Love Access" and saw some mention of older dev products, like Paradox, dbIII, etc. My first Windows dev product was Superbase. I built an entire reporting system for my department with it, then presented it to the IS department for WAN implementation. The IS folks...

Well, what do you folks think of Steve Irwin's demise? Ironical? Predictable?

Folks, I'm not even sure how to ask this correctly. I have an inherited db that I have screamed each year for three years. Vehicle mileage db. Original author used wizards and macros to design and operate this db, and I have finally gotten around to re-designing it. Scrapped the old design...
